Brother, keeper?

Statistically at least 80% of people are angry at any given time. Think about that. The person you pass on the street, sit next to on the bus, or interact with in your daily travels may be one of the angry. Maybe you are one of the” angry 80%”. It also seems true that strangers come together in time of crisis and duress. Katrina, the Tsunami , 911, and Columbine are a few examples of how people demonstrate capacity to interact with other in genuine caring ways. After the dust settles, its back to passing each other on streets without acknowledgement, standing in elevators together without as much as a smile, and sitting next to each other as if the other is invisible. The rest of the day or time is about us while humanity sits on the back burner reserved for the unexpected, uncontrollable catastrophic ball life serves every now and then as a wake-up call.
